A bold serif display face with pronounced thick–thin contrast and an engraved inline running through many strokes, creating a hollowed, double-stroke effect. Serifs are bracketed and slightly flared, with sculpted curves and tapered joins that give letters a carved, dimensional feel. Proportions read on the wider side with sturdy verticals and generous counters, while the inline detail adds texture and visual rhythm across both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, engraved treatment and appear designed to hold up at display sizes where the interior line remains clear.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and cover typography where the inline engraving can be appreciated. It can also work well for logos, packaging, and event or hospitality branding that benefits from a classic, high-impact serif with decorative interior detailing.
The overall tone feels classic and theatrical, with a vintage editorial character reminiscent of engraved headlines and formal signage. The inline carving adds drama and ornament without becoming overly delicate, producing a confident, statement-making presence.
Likely intended as a display serif that combines traditional high-contrast letterforms with an engraved inline to increase richness and visual distinction. The design prioritizes strong silhouette and ornamental texture for attention-grabbing typographic statements.
The inline cut introduces a secondary rhythm inside stems and bowls, so spacing and letterfit read more decorative than text-oriented. Curved letters (like C, G, O, S) emphasize the carved, layered look, and the font maintains a consistent ornamental logic across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
